Dan took a leave from the sailboat and documented his land adventure.

Here is a link that might be useful: Danny's blog and photos.

Aw, Tricia, they are all gorgeous, and each with his or her own personality. Looks like Alice is smiling from both ends. And two more on the way! I envy you. If my sons ever settle down and produce grandchildren, I will be too old to enjoy them.

December! What are you reading?

Finally finally finally have time to really read. December was crazy-a needlepoint gift that I almost finished...for DD and her DH to celebrate their cross-country tandem bicycle honeymoon. Several writing deadlines and the holiday frolics. Plus work. It all eats into reading time. There should be a law or something. Anyway-my current upstairs book is The Poisoned Chocolates Case courtesy of wigardener-really enjoying it. Downstairs is The Fleet Street Murders mentioned above. On the TBR pile-my very own copy of Wolf Hall and library copies of What Remains of Heaven, The Brutal Telling and My Antonia for bookclub. Riches and Bliss.

Palimpset, it's funny that you say it looks accumulated as I worried that it was too matchy-matchy because of all the rattan. I think my propensity towards that approach is based on watching Sarah Richardson putting a room together. Cawaps, there's definitely a lot going on in the room, but I did try and limit the forms to organic shapes and the colors to the color palette from the sofa fabric. It really was about finding a fabric that included both the deep red of the fixture and the orange of the carpet. It would definitely not be a restful living room, but I think would be great for parties. The fabric is from here: http://www.fabricguru.com/p-fabric-by-the-yard/terrace-printed-polyester-outdoor-atlantis-1 and it comes in a couple of other color ways. It's an outdoor fabric so it should be fairly kid-friendly. Positively Patty, The wall color reads to me as a little green, I wonder if a paler version of the pale cream in the carpet would be more restful? Crl, finding the sofa fabric was definitely key. I like the balance between organic curves and linearity in your room.

Just reading this makes me want to change my name to Silk and run off to Mexico to pick up a couple of good-looking guys. Ah, why didn't I do that? I'm so glad Dan is having an adventure. He'll remember this all his days.

Eileen, I've got to remember to show Ashley his blog, she'd be loving it.

On second thought, maybe I won't, the next thing I know she'll be looking for a sailboat...

I've been following along, so thanks for the reminder.

Thanks for posting the link Eileen! I've been enjoying reading their adventures! What a fun time! That is really living life as it is meant to be. I am very envious. And although me and boats don't usually get along it still makes me want to buy a sailboat...name it the Miss Behavin' and set sail for caribbean waters! Screw the bills, creditors and daily obligations! Sounds like a plan.

LOL, Eileen, I'll tell her to send an application and a picture of herself in a bikini, there could be an opening. (grin)

Right after she finishes her internship and has that degree in her hand, that'll be July 3...
